The Shackles of Second Love
47

The hotel and resort to be managed by Fabian has officially opened. Therefore Hartono and Sharon went to attend the opening of the place.

Actually, the place was Hartono built for him to manage because the main company he planned to leave to his son. But Fabian refused to accept the main company, and chose to manage the new hotel.

After officially divorcing, Hartono's assets and wealth only lived the company along with its production plant, and also a luxury penthouse that he currently occupies with Mia.

Mansion, Land, Boutique, and plantations in Lampung, all he has shared with Sharon and Fabian.

“Hartono, why didn't you bring the woman?” Sharon asked as the two sat down to enjoy lunch together.

“I don't want him to think strangely about us. And ended up accusing me of all sorts.” he said again.

Hartono was silent to the question of his ex-wife, he did not bring Mia to Lombok because it happened that the woman was not feeling well.

“I don't want her to be exhausted with this trip, especially now that she is pregnant.” Hartono said.

The man said without feeling that his words made Sharon surprised instead of playing. The woman really did not know that Mia was pregnant.

His hand that was holding the knife then shook. The pain hit Sharon again.

How could Hartono tell of Mia's pregnancy in front of him without feeling guilty?

Both of Sharon's lips instantly clenched, She lost her appetite.

The news of Mia's pregnancy is proof of her ex-husband's forbidden love so smoothly that it produces a seed outside of marriage.

“How old is the content?” suddenly Sharon asked while holding back the pain in her chest.

Hartono fell silent as if he had just realized that he was wrong in speaking. Sharon would have felt more ill if she knew Mia's gestational age was beyond the age of her divorce from Sharon.

Sharon took off her cutlery immediately, then began to look at her ex-husband's face with hateful eyes.

“I'm done.” Sharon said then stood up from her seat.

“Your food is not finished, Sharon. Fabian and Laura are also on their way here.” said Hartono hoping Sharon would undo his intention to leave the restaurant immediately.

The woman did not reply, Sharon actually swung her steps to leave the place.

..

Mia could not hide her current uneasy feelings. Hartono went with his Son and Ex-wife to Lombok. They will spend two days there.

No one will know what they are doing there. The two will often meet and chat with each other.

He was afraid that Hartono's feelings for Sharon grew again because they often met.

Moreover, the man still held great concern for Sharon. So do not rule out the possibility that the feelings of love that had withered back in bloom.

Mia's anxiety grew when Hartono did not pick up a phone call from her.

“Where is your father?” Mia asked as she stroked her belly which looked big as it had already entered the fourth month.

His mind raged and thought of nothing about Hartono as well as Sharon.

“I can't keep going like this.” murmured Mia with all the fret in her heart.

Mia had the thought of going after Hartono, but she was also afraid that the man would scold her.

“Maybe I better wait a minute. If later tonight she doesn't call back, then I'll actually go following her there.”

**

Because the inauguration of the hotel was held tomorrow morning, the investors who were closely connected with Hartono and the hotel began arriving tonight.

After finishing his business, Hartono returned to the place where he had dinner with his business colleagues.

“Sorry, because it has made you wait.” said Hartono using English.

“No problem, Sir.” replied the four men in unison.

Some of them are from East Asian countries, one of which is from South Korea. The woman named Haram came with her daughter named Sara.

The girl kept staring at Hartono, and could be realized by the man. Hartono did not understand why Sara kept looking at him.

“Uncle out of where?” sara asked without feeling awkward.

Hartono chuckled at it, while Haram immediately told his daughter to shut up.

Haram was embarrassed because Sara asked about something that had nothing to do with this meeting.

“I finished calling Wife.” replied Hartono making Sara sigh disappointed.

Though he heard the news that Hartono had divorced his wife, so the rumors that he got it were not true.

After that the atmosphere returned to conducive. Hartono began his discussion with these strangers. He explained that even though this hotel is not himself who manages, Hartono will still continue to oversee its development.

Hartono continued to try to convince his colleagues that there was no doubt in them after planting shares in Fabian's hotel.

..

Hartono did not understand why Sara continued to follow him even until she reached the door of his room.

What does this girl really want?

“Why are you following me?” holtono asked as Sara did not even hide her presence.

The girl smiled sweetly and looked at Hartono with a bold look in her eyes.

“I want to chat with uncle.” he replied without fading his sweet smile.

Hartono scrunched his forehead, “For what?”

“I have no business with you. I only have an interest in your mother.” explained Hartono to make Sara again smile.

The girl now dared to step closer to Hartono, even Sara was so brave to look at the man's face up close.

Hartono began to be wary of the girl before him at this moment.

“I forced my mother to come to meet with Uncle. Doesn't Uncle appreciate my efforts?” sara said as she stared meaningfully at the man in front of her.

“I don't care. Now you go back to your mother.” Hartono response is cold.

The man then rushed into the room and immediately locked the door quickly.

Hartono was completely confused as to why the girl was acting as bold as just now. At her.

“I don't like dealing with women like that.” he said.

Meanwhile Sara was still standing outside the room where Hartono was. The blood red haired girl smiled faintly.

Although the response Hartono showed was so cold to her, but it actually made Sara even more crazy about the man.

He had met with Hartono five years ago, but at that time he was only third grade Junior High. And Hartono doesn't seem to remember himself coming with Haram to Jakarta.

“Uncle is the type of Daddy I want.” he said then left the place.
